At 12:30 on Wednesday November 18th, 2009 the Seabrook Nuclear Power Plant conducted a test of all 121 sirens surrounding the plant. This siren is located next to the Barnard School in South Hampton NH. Following the test some in the Town Hall across the street said they couldn't hear the siren. In the event of an emergency those hearing the siren are supposed to tune to specific radio stations for more information.

  • With the people in the town hall not hearing the siren, even though it's close to them, it's never intended to be heard indoors. The intent of almost every siren installation is to warn people who are outside.

  • 121 Sirens? Whoa! :D

    Nice video too.

  • The steady tone was to signal a test, the second fluctuating tone was the test. The real fallout siren is a three count parabola with a three second pause in between.

  • That second one is eerie. When I was in third grade, we were having lunch at school and we heard that. I didn't hear the steady tone though. But when I heard that, one of my friends said, " is that a fire truck?" I said no, lol it is just a whelen wps 4008 and he is like how do you know that!?

  • This is a 4008 doing the 560hz alert signal

  • Those people saying they can not hear a siren like that better be deaf. other wise beat the lies out of their heads with a bat.

  • ON 00:30 you can faintly hear some other whelens booting up

  • Nice Whelen WPS-4008!

  • Thats what the one near me sounds like, its going off right now, buts its not a test.

  • That sir, right there is epic, hearing many siren winding down one by one.. WHOAAAA! love it

  • @FederalSystem7000 ive never seen a 4008 look like that. maybe is just the sun.
